blog lesson: scrapbook kits and backgrounds

August 3, 2010

Recently I decided that I like my blog to have one background paper versus a cutsy background with several patterns, buttons, flowers ect. Those kind of backgrounds are cute too, I'm not knocking them, it's totally preference thing.

This tutorial will show you how to use one digital scrapbook paper as your background.

First thing on the to-do list:Pick out the digital scrapbook kit you want to use for your blog.

you can fall hoplessly in love with a $8 kit fromhere.Aren't these just adorable?Normally I am all about free but I couldn't help it when I saw these....The Citrus Splash Kit has the cutest little lemonade stand!I can just picture a blog titled "making lemonade" with this kit!

And no, they didn't pay me to say this. It's just a fact. The Ettes & Co has the cutest digital scrapbook kits on the planet.

Ok moving on... Download whatever kit you want to use. You may also have to unzip the file. Once you get that all done look through the papers in your kit and decided which one you want to use as your background.

I'm up for learning any techie stuff you smart young girls have to teach. Thanks for helping out us "older gals". LOL :) Following now thru Whatever Goes Wednesday. Thanks again for sharing your tips! Pam @ Sallygoodin

I always wondered how to do that! I had to pick a template that I liked the background of and then change all the other elements to suit. I love the Ettes and Co too, did you know they are closing their shop soon? I think all their stuff is 50% off now but only for a short time. They're going to reopen at another digital store but are closing their own site. I need to make sure I scoop up some things before the price goes up again!
